Tokyo Pastry & Tokyo Drinks @ Kota Damansara

The food, however, is hit-&-miss, infused with Japanese influences, from this RM12.90 katsu burger (crispy chicken with mild curry, cucumbers & mushrooms in a charcoal bun, competent but not compelling) ...

... to RM6.90 wasabi-spiced fries (forgettable finger food) ...

... & cream-stuffed melon buns (perhaps best bought in the morning; might be stodgy at night).

Tokyo Pastry serves no liquor, but no matter: Tokyo Drinks, its sister outlet nearby, plies patrons with what a basic Japanese bar should serve.

Kelly: yeah, actually the katsu burger was all right here. decent and moderately enjoyable, but just lacked the extra oomph to elevate it =) and ya, i think that's wasabi powder. maybe a bit too much powder! :D

Great write up :) If you're around Kota Damansara, do try out our YummyLicious range of healthy-delicious food. We have healthy burgers as well. We're a home based food delivery business. Thanks! https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.335577403202928.76982.191168947643775&type=3

Huai Bin: yeah, the food looks attractive enough, now it just needs some tweaking to make sure it matches its appearance. i usually really enjoy cream puffs, but this one tasted like it was a day old, heh =)

The Yum List: yeah, that plum liquor definitely has its fans (including one of my friends)! and ya, the charcoal bun craze has certainly swept quite a few outlets. wonder if we'll be seeing blue buns next :D

This burger frenzy is still madly on going...like the gangnam style...ppl are still not sick with it yet. The lounge looks really nice. But the charcoal bun doesn't quite look too attractive. (Can't help making comparisson with the ones in burger lab).

Sycookies: yeah, i definitely still am not bored yet of biting into burgers. i'm wondering whether this place should change its menu though, to offer something more in line with its nice, lounge-like setting. and yeah, myburgerlab is still my top choice for burgers! :D

Iamthewitch: thanks, mei yee! hope you and hubby have a great and festive chinese new year down under too, ya :D yeah, there are some pastries and buns and cakes sold here, but i didn't try them. and ya, out of the burger, the fries and the melon bun, if i had to choose one, it'd definitely be the burger! :D

YouHadYourLunch: yeah, i feel a bit bad that i couldn't have praised the food here, but i do hope they'll still be able to cultivate a following among enough customers. i like my fries really fluffy, so the ones here didn't work for me, heh :D

Gong Xi Fa Chai Guys! FYI, YummyLicious do have a Japanese Chicken Katsu Burger served with our very own homemade sweet curry sauce. We call it The Vader Burger :D LOL https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.351217361638932.81711.191168947643775&type=3
